"Marvel Studios expands its film universe with a new type of superhero:
THOR. This epic adventure spans the Marvel Universe; from present day
Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty
Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an
ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans
as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero
when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of
Asgard to invade Earth.
Kenneth Branagh directs this fantasy epic which stars Australian actor
Chris Hemsworth as the ancient Norse god, Tom Hiddleston as his evil
brother Loki, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, a young woman who
befriends Thor on Earth, and Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Thor's father and
king of Asgard. Expect to see agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., previously seen in
''Iron Man,'' to make an appearance, further forshadowing the coming of
The Avengers!"
